Snatcher And Ace Attorney Inspired A New Adventure Game Called Harvest

Harvest is an upcoming adventure game set in the future, where 99% of the human population is unable to reproduce as the result of a chemical war. The remaining 1% can reproduce, and are the future of mankind, but are starting to disappear under mysterious circumstances.

You play as a detective investigating the disappearances of the remaining fertile humans. Harvest developer GondeFire Productions say that the game is inspired by other graphic adventures like Snatcher and the Ace Attorney series. The game will use basic commands like “Move,” “Look,” “Investigate” and “Use”.

Harvest will have a fully-voiced cast of characters and is being developed using Unity. The game is currently in development for PC, Mac and Linux with other platforms to be decided.

You can watch a trailer for Harvest above. GondeFire are asking for $10,000 in contributions for the game on Kickstarter, and they’re already over halfway to that figure, so this is one of the more realistic crowdfunded projects out there.

I’m a little suspicious. Their previous game appears to be a Castlevania rip-off iPhone game and the Kickstarter itself looks like it wasn’t written by a native English speaker. Even if it’s real, I’m not sure I’m interested if the actual in-game writing quality looks like this.

I saw that he was a dude named Kevin from Micihgan and thought “oh dear, he’s just a bad writer”. However, the screenshot of the dialogue is written in Portugese, so you may be right. Well, he’s trying, so I won’t naysay him yet.

I wonder how 99% of the population can’t reproduce(.I mean,their parents WERE fertille),and,after a chemical war,are still even alive and breathing.I wonder how the plot will be developed.

I’m interested,though.

The article’s title grabbed me! But the terrible monologue drove me away.

That trailer was literally four half-decent pieces of Blade Runner fanart set to music. Game designers should love making games and put in a real amount of free time into it before asking other people to fund their games IMO, these guys don’t seem to have anything more than “we want to make an adventure game, like snatcher!”.

I quickly read the title and I thought someone was making a new “Harvester” and then I see this and I’m kind of disappointed.

Oh man, a new Harvester would be all kinds of crazy amazing. One wonder how the plot would be updated to todays world and graphics though…

Have to admit- the trailer made me laugh a little… It just summed up the premise of the game so bluntly “But.. they keep disappearing!” xD The game does seem pretty interesting though.. Intriguing story!~
